ROB VINCILETTI: NBA PLAYOFF 1ST ROUND GAME OF THE YEAR
(NBA) Atlanta vs. Brooklyn,
Point Spread: -4.00 | -107.00 Atlanta (Away)
Result: Loss
The Eastern Conference Power system play is on the Atlanta Hawks. Game 509 at 7:05 eastern. The Hawks will look to bounce back forma game 3 loss here to the nets. They have powerful game 4 systems on their side and teams in this exact setup win over 60% without even adding in subsets. Teams in game 4 that are home dogs off a home dog win have been poor investments, especially if they are off 3 or more spread wins. The Hawks may very well play like the 1 seeds they are and they have shot under 40% in back to back games for the first time all season. The Hawks are 9-2 ats off a straight up favored loss and 4-0 after scoring 85 or less. The Nets have held opponents to under 40% shooting in back to back games just 2 other times this season and were losers as a home favorite in both follow up games. The nets are 1-9 ats at home vs an opponent who shot 20 or more 3 point shots and made less than 25% of them. Look for the Hawks to soar past the Nets tonight.
